Quite the contrary, I talked on irc about how the project could help
though i didn't mention it here, sorry about that.

Yea, you can do whatever you want with it, I never said you could't.
The project has good goals and the ability to help, my ENTIRE question
which you did NOT answer was of logistics. Ebuild XYZ sucks and janitor
fixes it and submits it to you, what then? If it doesn't somehow get into
our main portage tree than it can't help anyone. THIS is the reason
you should be talking to devs, to see if we can come up with a way
for the cleaned up ebuilds to make it into the tree.

what research? It doesn't matter how nice you and your teammates
are if the project has no ability to deliver the product. Keep in mind
I never questioned you or your ability or your projects or your teammates.
I asked how you planned on getting this to work and you reacted
in a very emotional and defensive way. I suggest you evaluate the
goals of the project and your ability to contribute to Gentoo with it.
We will be more than happy to facilitate your project and it's contributions
but you must take the initiative to talk to developers who can help you.
